The intent is three-fold: a) genealogical: to capture descriptions of a lifetime of fun times and accomplishments for descendents who might be curious about old great-grandpa Tom; b) to inspire a next generation of youngsters to consider pursuit of engineering, science, and critical thought, as a door to a fruitful life; and c) to try to bridge that pervasive qboring and/or over-my-headq gap by showing that qengineeringq concepts are essentially common-sense and intuitive (you learned them in kindergarten playground), and the jargon should not be off-putting.
